Hi All,



Do you have any leanings between Centralized IT networks (Main IT
group responsible for IT services); vs. decentralized IT networks
(Each department is responsible for their own apps, servers and
security (Intrusion detection/prevention) with their own IT staff? Has
anyone looked at their campus and formed an opinion on the IT
governance configuration?



Any feedback you can provide is appreciated.



Thanks,
